Antonio Vivaldi Sonata ‘La follia’ for solo harpsichord 

Interesting, but do not know why this image is very well-selected, as you say

Lucien Freud's art was distorted. That was his style. Van Gogh couldn't paint proper hands, but who cares

@@clavichord la folia… the folly…in the state or quality of being foolish

Piano's hammers use a soft felt to strike the keys. Harpsichord instead uses a hard wooden plectrum to pluck each string. The use of soft materials tends to take away the piercing sound (many of the high frequency overtones, the ones that would give a piercing sound, are not heard when using the soft felt against the string) It's similar to the effect of using a soft felt mallet on a drum instead of a hard wooden one.

Sim, tirou as palavras de minha boca 💓💓💓💓

It's a transcription by the harpsichordist himself.

The painting is by Lucian Freud, Girl with Roses.

I constantly imagine some kind of epic fairy tale duel. Truly lovely music. :-)

In my eyes(pretty sure this is true, eh...)I see a huge, bloody war that happened for a while. Definately some fairytale duel sounds though, I can see why you imagine!
